General description
Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is a large, multi-subunit, O2-carrying, metalloprotein. This high molecular weight glycoprotein is extracted from a marine snail species called Megathura crenulate.
Application
Hemocyanin, Keyhole Limpet, Megathura crenulata, high purity, endotoxin-free, sterile-liquid has been used as an antigen to test the polyreactivity of monoclonal antibody (mAb) using enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay(ELISA). It has also been used to immunize animals to study KLH-specific ex vivo recall responses and specific T-cell dependent antibody response (TDAR) in monkeys.
Biochem/physiol Actions
Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) stimulates both cell-mediated and humoral responses in animals and humans. It elicits immunostimulatory properties and also functions as a vaccine adjuvant. KLH serves as a carrier protein to produce antibodies and haptens like peptides and oligosaccharides. It is used to treat bladder cancer.
Packaging
Please refer to vial label for lot-specific concentration.
Warning
Toxicity: Standard Handling (A)
Physical form
In 83 mM sodium phosphate, 150 mM NaCl, pH 7.2.
Preparation Note
KLH is an extremely large protein complex that has a tendency to aggregate and precipitate from solutions. Use a buffer when diluting KLH and maintain the magnesium concentration at ≥10 mM. Store KLH solutions at 4°C. DO NOT freeze, vortex or agitate to dissolve KLH. Freezing or agitating KLH will cause protein aggregation and precipitation.

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) attracts biomedical interest because of its remarkable immunostimulatory properties. Currently, KLH is used as vaccine adjuvant, carrier protein for haptens and as local treatment for bladder cancer. Since a quantitative human anti-KLH assay is lacking, it

Keyhole limpet hemocyanin (KLH) is used as a vaccine adjuvant, as a carrier protein for small haptens, and as a treatment for bladder cancer. Immunization with KLH produces antibodies to tumor-associated carbohydrate antigens (TACAs) in animals, and these antibodies have

The OX40 receptor plays a crucial co-stimulatory role in T effector cell survival, expansion, cytokine production, and cytotoxicity to tumor cells; therefore, OX40 agonists are being evaluated as anti-cancer immunotherapies, especially in combination with checkpoint inhibitors. To support clinical development

Polyreactivity is the ability of a single antibody to bind to multiple molecularly distinct antigens and is a common feature of antibodies induced upon pathogen exposure. However, little is known about the role of polyreactivity during anti-influenza virus antibody responses.
